An examination of certain political, narrative, and academic issues from a reasonably conservative perspective.

"To announce that there must be no criticism of the president, or that we are to stand by the president, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public." -- Theodore Roosevelt

Let's hope people notice this, even as it's eclipsed by the ObamaCare ruling. This is quite significant and quite important. Holder is now the first Attorney General in the history of the US to be held in contempt of Congress. Congrats!

Normally this would be headline news. Now will MSM ignore it, spin it, or cry racist? You make the call.

So, the course ahead is quite clear. For Obamacare to come tumbling down, we need to go out and vote out the people who passed this (Obama included, of course), and then insist that our represenatatives dismantle this budget-breaking travesty.

It's all come down to us the voters... again. And I suppose that's the way it should be in a republic.

Jacobson at Legal Insurrection has a great pep talk. Check it out. It cheered me up.

UPDATE: From Patrick Gaspard, the Executive Director of the Democratic National Commitee: "it's constitutional. Bitches." via twitter. All these guys have got to be voted out. Their contempt for the American people is evident. Notice how only "Bitches" is capitalized. Nice.
